Theurn sculpturesare
a contemporary re-invention of the classical urn-on-plinth. Instead
of traditional stonework, the flattened forms are cast in industrial
grey or white concrete giving the sculptures an edgy, modern twist.
The surface imagery has architectural references - particularly
the voluptuous garlands and swag and drop detail of 18th century
facades which, instead of being sculpted, are indented on a perfectly
flat surface. Uniting baroque-style decoration with hardcore concrete
creates an interesting and ironic juxtaposition.

Outdoors:
Traditionally, urns were often sited on parapets
or in landscaped parkland more for their sculptural qualities than
as a plant containers. These solid contemporary 'urns' play a similar
role in the modern garden, providing interesting focal detail in
all kinds of outdoor spaces - whether glimpsed though foliage or
perched on balconies or plinths where they can be viewed at eye-level.

Indoors:
The urn sculptures are equally effective
in interior settings and their small scale makes them perfect for
mantlepieces or consoles.
